Electrical Engineer – Satellite Systems
Salary : $110,000 - $150,000 Company Overview
Our client is developing a state-of-the-art satellite navigation system to support critical technologies such as autonomous vehicles, precision agriculture, and aerospace applications. With a mission to build a more accurate, reliable, and resilient space-based infrastructure, their cutting-edge work is reshaping what’s possible in satellite communications and navigation. Position Summary
We’re seeking an
Electrical Engineer – Satellite Systems
to help design and integrate the electrical systems that power and control modern spacecraft. This is a hands-on engineering role that spans the full hardware lifecycle—from schematic design to testing and integration—offering exposure to avionics, power systems, and satellite subsystems. You’ll work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where your designs will directly impact the performance of spaceflight hardware. Key Responsibilities
Design and develop satellite electrical subsystems, including avionics, power distribution, and interconnect systems Create schematics and PCB layouts using industry-standard EDA tools Conduct hardware and layout reviews to ensure design robustness Plan and perform electrical testing from early prototypes to flight-ready systems Debug and troubleshoot hardware using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and power meters Support sourcing and qualification of electrical components for space-grade applications Develop interface control documentation and electrical schematics for integration with other subsystems Assist with system-level integration and testing, including support during assembly and environmental testing Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline 2+ years of experience taking designs from schematic to manufacturing Proficiency with electrical design and simulation tools (e.g., Altium, KiCad, SPICE) Solid understanding of electronics fundamentals, power systems, and signal integrity Experience with lab equipment for testing and debugging electrical systems Familiarity with embedded systems and common peripheral interfaces (e.g., I2C, SPI, CAN, Ethernet) Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach to engineering U.S. citizenship or lawful permanent residency (Green Card) required under U.S. export control regulations Willingness to work on-site in Burlingame, CA Preferred Qualifications
Experience with satellite systems, avionics, or electrical power systems (EPS) Exposure to the aerospace industry and space-specific design considerations Knowledge of system integration, flight hardware requirements, and space environmental constraints Seniority level
